Vilandian Elf
Blood, sun and dust elves are descendants of what people once called high elves. After the Elven Human Wars ended in 250 BV, it was defined a racist slang only used by elves who still believed themselves above all else.
Even before those wars, in events leading up to the Elaminulios Civil Wars in 1313 BV, elves began to split their territory and evolve differently, which caused new terminology to stir up for three kinds of elves. Subraces not on this list:Wood Elf (as seen in the official subrace)
Dark Elves have been replaced by Dust Elves
High Elves are almost extinct and are mostly replaced by their descendants, the Blood Elves

Blood Elf
Having lived in elevated and therefore safe cities for centuries, blood elves evolved to be taller than their high elven ancestors. They have warm and most of the time even pinkish or violet skin tones and usually pure light pink or red eyes but slightly less slender builds than their relatives. Other than that, they kept the traits of the now almost extinct high elves.
Because blood elves are rare, it is most common to find elves who are only part blood elf and have adopted traits from their other ancestors.

Moon Elf
Moon elves are very closely related to wood elves and have separated themselves over the eons to adjust more to the darkness of the pine woods. They reside mostly in Mahina, which is why not many moon elves are used to sunny areas and other countries in general.
They have brown, blue or purple skin tones of various shades and, like their other Elven relatives, uni-colored eyes, usually in shades of blue or gray. Moon elves are 5-7 feet tall.

Dust Elf
Dust elves only came to be in 1331 after being cursed and banished by the sun elves as a final blow after the end of the war. Their entire race was originally a faction of sun elves in the civil war. Being ‘burned by the sun’, their skin is very ashen and often gray, their eyes uni-colored.
Having had to hide from sun elves for a long time, they evolved to be shorter than their high elven ancestors.
Dust elves can be 5 to 6 feet tall.

Fey Ancestry. You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can't put you to sleep. Trance. Elves do not sleep. Instead they meditate deeply, remaining semi-conscious, for 4 hours a day. The Common word for this meditation is "trance."

After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit a human would from 8 hours of sleep. Darkvision. You have superior vision in darker conditions. In every lighting condition, you can see 60 feet as if it was bright light.
